The development of learning activities based on the stem education to promote the scientifically creative thinking of Prathomsuksa 6 students
Keywords:
STEM Education, Scientifically creative thinking, Learning achievementsAbstract
The purpose of this research study were to 1) develop learning activity management based on STEM education with 75/75 standardized criteria efficiency 2) to compare students’ scientifically creative thinking between pre-test and post-test activities with the STEM education 3) to compare students’ learning achievements between pre-test and post-test assessments with the STEM education. A sample was a group of 16 students in Prathomsuksa 6 at Ban khokkokmuang School by Cluster random sampling. Research instruments were determined with STEM education lesson plans, the learning achievement test, and the creative thinking measuring test. Standard deviation, percentage, dependent sample t - test were analyzed.
The results of the research findings have revealed as 1) the average efficiency index of the lesson plans of STEM education was 79.72/78.75, which was higher than the standardized criteria of 75/75. 2) Students’ responses of their scientifically creative thinking to their previous and lately learning with the STEM education were differentiated evidence at .05 level of the statistical significance. 3) Students’ learning achievements of their pre-test and post-test assessing differentiated evidence at .05 level of the statistical significance.
